    Unhappy Keyboard/Mouse Bindings do not work correctly

    I have the same issue. I bind:

    LMB = Fire, Aim (hold)
    RMB = Move Forward
    X = Move Backwards

    When I attempt to bind this configuration, I end up with:

    LMB = Fire, Aim (hold), Move Backwards
    RMB = Move Forward
    X = Do Nothing

    The LMB both aims and walks backwards.

    Also, before using the grapple, or climbing any rope, I must:

    Restore the keyboard/mouse bindings to their default settings
    (perform the in-game action)
    Re-bind the keyboard/mouse settings

    This makes the game unplayable...

    ----------------------------

    On a completely different note, the next time your out at night, watch how the moon and the stars only move when you do!?!

    It just boggles my mind how they can screw up such a basic part of the game as key binding. It just screams bad console porting.

    I'm having the same issue. I use vastly different controls from default and I cant move backward how I want. I paid 80 bucks for an unplayable game. Plugging in my 360 controller makes the game work fine but if I wanted to use a controller I'd have bought the console version.

    how many fingers does a human have FFS.
    Yeah, I never got using W to move either... I use a combination of turning and straffing to go around corners and it's awkward using W. I always bind forward to RMB and move aim to a side mouse button (my current mouse even has a special button for this). Doing this in FC4 breaks using S to move backward.... (Specifically it's moving forward to RMB - moving aim doesn't break anything else.) PLEASE FIX ASAP!

    Hilariously, this bug also causes Ajay to move backward when drawing the bowstring. I was able to climb grapples too.

    I never had this problem in 3, all my bindings work fine there, but I started playing that on 1.05. I probably have played more hours of FC3 since then than any adult on the planet.

    One more thing, the choices Ubi made for control keys defy logic... Why does the fire button make you climb up grapples? Why not the forward key do this, same as climbing ladders (and vines in FC3)... for that matter, why didn't they just keep the same default key mappings as FC3? DOH!

    key bindings fix in patch please

    What they said, there's other threads about this issue. And other threads in other forums. This should never have been an issue in the first place and should at least have been fixed in the day1 patch. Please fix this in patch2. Game is unplayable when we can't move in the game as we like.

    Sums it up nicely. There are no excuses for this being an issue in the first place, along with a lot of other problems. Piss poor testing.

    Also you cannot bind "page up" and "page down" to anything at all or your mouse wheel doesn't work anymore for anything.. (I'm a lefty and use right side of keyboard)

    And why can't I bind mouse wheel up and mouse wheel down differently? I want mouse wheel up to be next weapon, and mouse wheel down to be previous weapon. NOPE! Can't do it!!

    Mouse wheel is for switching freaking grenade type which is ridiculous and stupid. I can switch grenade type with any damned button.





    -And I found out something new. with my key bindings I cannot ever climb ropes, so cannot play game at all. I didn't even change the "ascend" rope button!
